Duke is a 10-year-old Boxer with a heart as big as his blocky head. Weighing in at about 65 pounds, this handsome senior found himself in our care after his owner experienced a family hardship and could no longer keep him. Despite the changes in his life, Duke remains a gentle, resilient soul who is ready to start his next chapter with a loving family. At some point in his life, Duke may have suffered a stroke, which left him with facial paralysis on one side of his face. The good news is that it doesn’t slow him down one bit—he eats, drinks, and enjoys life just like any other dog. In fact, his lopsided grin only adds to his unique and charming good looks. Duke enjoys getting out for walks and exploring the world around him. He can pull a bit on the leash, so he may benefit from some structure and guidance in this area, but he’s eager to please and would do well with someone willing to work with him. He’s a friendly guy who gets along well with other dogs and has even shown that he’s okay with cats, making him a great candidate for many different types of homes. Duke has been through a lot, but his spirit is strong and his heart is full of love to give. If you’re looking to open your home to a loyal, sweet senior who just needs a soft place to land, Duke might be your perfect match. We are now accepting applications for Duke and would love to help him find the forever home he deserves. 🐾💙 Please apply for Duke at https://www.gloucestercountynj.gov/FormCenter/Animal-Shelter-5/PreAdoption-Application-50
